According to Grand View Research, the value of the global blockchain technology market was estimated at USD 10.02 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a staggering compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 87.7% between 2023 and 2030.

Director of Regulatory Compliance of the FinTech Association of Trinidad and Tobago (FinTechTT), Alexander Gafoor, helps us to explore some of the legal issues surrounding blockchain technology including,

• why you still may need a real-world contract even if there is a smart contract;
• some of the legal issues associated with NFTs;
• reconciling the transparency and immutability of blockchain technology with data privacy legislation; and
• the valuing of digital assets, particularly with respect to taxes.
